Next-gen Blu-ray "mindblowing" says Gosling

,----[ Quote ]
| Blu-ray Profile 2 increases the amount of local storage that must be provided 
| by a player (flash memory is now so cheap that this is unlikely to make much 
| difference to the price of Blu-ray hardware) and also mandates the provision 
| of Internet connectivity.   
| 
| This will result in "all kinds of really interesting Blu-ray applications 
| that use the network," Gosling told iTWire, such as first-person shooter 
| games, shopping, and community subtitling.

Sun Turns Towards Jython

| This move, of course, follows on the success that the JRuby project has 
| enjoyed by having two of its core committers working for Sun (and the success 
| that Sun has enjoyed from that investment as well). Thanks largely to this 
| support from Sun, JRuby has now reached the point of being a doubly-credible 
| Ruby implementation.
